Fortnite on Switch: you can use party chat without needing the ridiculous mobile app

It turns out Fortnite players on Switch need not turn to the Switch Online mobile app up to talk to their friends in the game.

The Nintendo Switch version of Fortnite, which only just launched, includes native support for voice chat. In other words, you can plug a headset into the headphone jack on the Switch to use it.

This fantastic news was shared by an Epic Games developer on Nintendo’s Treehouse livestream at E3. The feature is technically not available yet, but the developer noted it will be turned on tomorrow, June 14.

If you’re looking to play Fortnite on Switch soon, you may be disappointed to learn that you won’t be able to use the same Epic account you use on PS4 to play on Switch, thanks to Sony blocking cross-play. You’ll have to create a new Epic account.
